ONLY 4 downloads?!!

Are people not using this or are there just no people modding this device? Some feedback would be nice? since I have it I will share it. This update includes 14 Boot Animations and a lot of options to theme what you want. The mods are compatible with AOSP and Blur Roms, odex or deodex, locked or unlocked bootloader. The only requirement is rooted device with a recovery.

Now has options to install bootanimations

Even though there is apparently no interest here I have decided to share this update v5.5 because I have it running perfectly on my girls phone. I have seen and dealt with the bootanimation issue for this phone. I have found the solution to run custom Bootanimations. Enjoy

Saw your post on my thread, thanks for the feedback.

Nothing personal, but I feel like these designs/wallpapers might be a little too over the top for my personal tastes. What I look for in great UI design is moderate contrast and a strong color pallet. A lot of the icons in the framework themes seem to conflict as well... like some of the icons are glossy, then some are flat and very basic.

Also there seems to be some pixelation in some of the icons, or little pixel-ish white borders around some icons which make them seem out of place.

I do love the idea of what you've done here, you've shown that theming packages are easily made available... what would be more appealing to me is some kind of content which will easily allow people to make their own themes with tools like photoshop and such, tools to empower creators who might not be as familiar with the Android system.

I can appreciate that you know what you like and how to get it!! The version of Missing Link released here is not as complete as my current version for sure. I really have only posted in the forum to get some feedback from different devices. I currently am working on a whole new Aroma UI for my phone which has over 500 choices to pick and mod what you want. I haven't kept the Droid RAZR version as up to date simply because I haven't seen a demand for it. I am about to release a Final version for my phone and have had a couple of request to port to another device. At that point I will definitely send an update to this device.

Question, So you have installed this and ran through the Aroma Installer options? If so, which options did you pick? Since this version was released I have improved my drawing and editing of "patch 9.png's" which have proven to be very tricky and important to a proper and complete look!

So are suggesting that I kind of go through what steps and tools I used to create this in a tutorial like environment? either way thank you for input and feedback.

Boot Animation Previews

I am still working on this, but there are now Boot Animation previews available in the OP. Remember I have tested all the boot animation available in Missing Link myself and have confirmed they all work. I had to shorten some of them due to possible stock kernel issues. Enjoy

Does this work for the Maxx HD? Also does it work if I have Carbonite KK 4.4.2 flashed?

It does work for the Maxx HD. As far as KK, most mod will stick 100% some may only work partially. For my Original device I have tested and confirmed it works from GB-JB with parts of KK. If you wouldn't mind testing and giving me feedback I will make the necessary fixes? The problem I have is I ported this to my girls phone and she has locked bootloader! So testing different roms is not really an option for me.

MAKE A NANDROID and test for me please? Every mod including boot animations and logo.bin choices work 100% for her phone running Stock deodex Moto Blur.

mostly works on Atrix HD running Carbon 4.4.2

Boot animation and boot logo work flawlessly.
battery icon and wifi icon alterations aren't working (most likely because this ROM has fully integrated theming capabilities for those icons).

now just waiting for the Blown Away that stang is uploading tonight and I'll be golden!

sorry it took longer than I thought , but I got carried away and created a new mod for Boot Animations universal for hdpi and xhdpi devices. this is a beta v1 that only has the updated Blown away sized for your phone. I have already tested and confirm working for mine and mu girls phones. Let me know what you think of the concept and of course if you have problems or ideas? thanks for the feedback

I like the concept as it looks a lot like the GUI from Missing Link and it is easy enough to understand with the clear designations between phones and resolutions.

I was able to install the boot animation in seconds, of course, but for some reason my phone won't play a sound file while booting (I know it is capable as it played the annoying AT&T sound when it was stock). I know it's not because of the bootloader because this phone is completely unlocked (I did it myself). I also know it's not just your app or file association as it doesn't want to play the sound I've tried loading from 2 other bootani's. I've tried placing the sound files at the root of the media folder as well as inside the actual sound folder... to no avail. maybe I'll try checking the box in the GUI that indicated the same settings you had to use on your girl's RAZR HD.

UPDATE: turns out the aforementioned box for RAZR HD apparently references the omega bootani' and not particular sound or any other settings that help with the AHD... not an error on your part, just doesn't do anything on my device.

Interesting

I don't suppose this would work on the RAZR Maxx XT912? I would love to change my boot logo and get rid of that big red 'M'.

Add support for more phones

I would really like to see you support more phones, mainly my moto RAZR Maxx xt912. If you were to support more phones and put it on the play store, I would gladly pay abuck for it

That's the idea with the different versions I've made. Very difficult from device to device and even same device with different version of Android things work and don't work. As far as this working on your phone, particularly the logo mod, from what I've read up on and even opened up a mod from your forum's. It looks like that will for sure work, along with what looks to me like most of the mods would work. I recommend not using the center clock mod as that is more specific to my phone. I would say Nandroid up and flash away! Let me know if you have more questions

    Basically this mod gives you 11 base themes with mix and match options for countless more. I'm sorry if I may come off the wrong way or sound short with descriptions. i made this mod for my girl and figured I would share since it has proven so well on her phone. For anyone interested new or existing Missing Link users make sure and check **here** for pictures of what the mod options will be installing if picked. I have been testing and fine tuning this mod to work smoothly with this phone. I have to say for having the limitation of a locked bootloader, this phone is great. I have found my mod works with odex or deodexed ROMs. If anyone has question or requests let me know. Thanks


    This is a port from my original creation. My girl recently picked up this phone and always hands it straight over to me to break open the system for modding to her liking. I was surprised when I found that Motorola had taken away Android key feature of being "open source", by which I mean when a locked bootloader we after closed to few options for ROMs and mods. That brings me to the reason for porting my mod to this device, bring life to DROID RAZR HD!!! This is just a starter/teaser version and the beginning to what I hope will grow to be very useful and fun to use. Now to what you get ;

    Not sure what this really does but I'm game to try it out. Does this require a wiped device or will it work with an existing ROM?

    Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk now Free

    doesn't require any cache or data wipes. Just flash in recovery and pick the options you want to change. Enjoy

    Major Update!! Now Ready for Downloading

    I have put many hours of testing coming of with ideas and finally feel that this is ready for the update. I have tested this through and though and found it runs flawlessly on Blur based ROMs deodex/odex, unlocked/locked bootloader, doesn't matter! this version does mostly support AOSP ROMs with the exception of signalbars. Will update in the future!
